BEHOLD! The Twister Molecule, Part II. The rest of the crew (and Meg) all connected together in three movies or less.

That’s a big ol’ kick in the face between Nic Cage and Leelee Sobieski there. #HOW’D IT GET BURNED

Oh! That’s Deep Impact between her and Elijah Wood. Whoops.

Sunshine follows with Sunfall Pt. 7

Warnings: None really.

This is mostly just a filler chapter(just like the last one)

Honestly, I'm so sorry that I keep disappearing and returning with chapters that have no action. It's Judith + Jason content, though.

"What time is Judith's award ceremony?"

1:06 AM

"8:30."

1:08 AM

"I'll be there."

1:08 AM

×××

That morning had been normal. You woke up Judith for school and fed her breakfast before she went to go brush her teeth. You then helped her put on her clothes, brush her hair, and put on her shoes.

She arrived at school normally, sitting in the cafeteria before going off to her class so that she could do her morning work before the entire first grade sat in the cafeteria together and had their awards ceremony.

You showed up at the school thirty minutes early, sitting yourself down in one of the chairs set up in the back for the parents. You gazed at the stage, smiling softly to yourself as you think about how far your girl has come.

Once a small girl who couldn't even hold her head up, now an elementary student who's going to smile brightly on the stage as she holds up her awards paper-

"Hey." A slightly hoarse voice spoke from beside you as someone sat down.

You looked next to you and noticed Jason. "Hello." You sat up slightly straighter.

Jason tugged on the front of his jacket as he adjusted it. "Hope you don't mind me sitting here. Is this seat taken?"

Another slight smile tugs on the corner of your lips. "Bruce and Tim are at work, Dick is in Blüdhaven, and Damian is at his own school. It's not taken."

"I would've thought B and Butt brains would take time out of work for this." Jason tilts his head slightly.

"They're at a meeting." You inform him.

"Ahhh...."

An awkward pause fell over the two of you.

"You look nice today...."

Your eyes go over to Jason again, your gaze soft. You catch yourself and clear your throat, looking at the stage again. "Thank you."

"You're welcome." He nods to himself. "Well, not that you don't look nice everyday..."

You take in a deep breath and let out a sigh. "Thank you, Jason." You say again.

"You're welcome." He smiles slightly. "So, who's class is she in?"

"Mrs. Thompson's."

"Is she a good teacher?" Jason asks you.

"Judith likes her." You nod. "I'd say she's good."

Jason was going to say something else, but the cafeteria doors opened and students started walking in. The two of you watched as the first graders all filled the seats, sitting in rows assigned to their teachers.

"There's Jude!" You grin and point at one of the classes walking. Sure enough, your daughter was walking in the middle of the line.

Judith didn't notice Jason or you as she walked by, too focused on going to her seat. She sat down and a boy sat down next to her. The two of them started talking, smiling to each other as Judith waved her hands around.

"Who's that?" Jason asks you, speaking again.

"Her friend Alex." You glance at him as you tell him that. "Relax, she's literally six."

"I know, I know." He sighs. "Almost seven though."

"Oh!" You actually look at him now, instead of just glancing. "Will you be seeing her on her birthday?"

Jason smiles. "You think I wouldn't?"

A chuckle escapes your lips. "We have a tight schedule that day. We'll be at the Manor so that she can have a small little party, but we'll be back home that night."

Jason nods. "I'll be there. Text me when you get home."

"I will." You lean back in your seat and smile down at your lap.

The awards ceremony started just seconds later. Teachers took their turn going up to the stage and calling up members of their classes to hold up the awards they've earned.

Mrs. Thomson soon got on the stage and introduced herself, smiling as she called her class up by their names, starting with the Accelerated Reader award.

She went down the list of names and eventually called, "Judith Todd."

Judith excitedly got up from her seat and went up to the stage, taking her paper award. Judith went to go stand in the line of her classmates.

"Just like her father." You smile as you lean over and whisper to Jason. "You were such a nerd back in school."

Jason glances at you and tries to hide his own smile. You were right. He was a 'nerd' back in school.

Judith grinned as her name was called for a few more awards.

At the end of the ceremony, all students were allowed to stand and go visit their parents.

Jason and you stood and smiled as Judith came running up to the two of you. "Mommy! Daddy!"

Her arms reached up for the two of you and Jason lifted her up into his arms. "Hey, Sunshine."

"Hi, Daddy." She rests her head on his shoulder, handing you the three awards she got.

"Good job, Judy!" You match her enthusiasm, causing her to giggle.

"Thank you, mommy." She replies.

"Of course, baby." You smooth down her hair and lean closer to her and Jason.

Jason looks down at the paper awards Judith handed you. "AR. Good job." He smiles at her.

"Daddy's coming over for your birthday!" You tell the young girl.

"Really?!" She squeals.

"Of course!" Jason returns her enthusiasm.

Judith holds her father tightly as she kicks her feet, her smile widening as she wriggles around happily.

The teachers started rounding up their students again, making Jason have to let Judith go. "Love ya, Sunshine."

"I love you too, Mommy and Daddy!" Judith hugged your hips then ran off, leaving Jason and you alone again.

"Text me when you get home that day."

Todd probably gives Thompson shit about it being Juan since he probably use to complain about the bandits constantly. But once he actually MEETS Juan he’s all, he’s too sweet and cute for your drunk and bitter ass. How the hell did that happen!? Joking about how he is completely out of the sheriff’s league.

That's so good he finally gets to meet Juan after them talking about it for so long and he's this sweet little thing and he's so polite and nice

I wouldn't surprised if he was like ".... wait you? You're dating him?" Maybe even discreetly asked him if Thomson was holding him against his will, to which Juan promised he wasn't

I really don't think Juan would mind Todd, he'd hummer him and probably even have a nice time, but I don't think Thomson particularly liked Todd talking to him. Not just because he didn't trust him not to try to hit on Juan and make him uncomfortable but also because he's a little worried Jon will hate him and think less of Thomson for associating in the first place

On Set Production Week 3 - AC Article - Tár

American Cinematographer 

Tár: A Musical Icon’s Descent 

- By Patricia Thomson

Tár is one of my absolute favourite films of the 2020s so far, so I jumped on the opportunity to read further into the cinematography. 

Cinematographer Florian Hoffmeister says that one of the key challenges of the film was not beautifying the narrative.

“If you start to amplify that which remains in the gray zone of a story, then it isn’t in the gray zone anymore,”

Florian knew director Todd Field’s work as an actor because he loves Eyes Wide Shut.

‘appearance, being, detachment and intimacy’ are the key words he thought of when shooting the film.

He says that the gift of a great cinematographer is to shine a light of truth. 

Lenses which repurposed optics from Arri’s Signature Line. 

Arri Print Emulsion System was used as reference point for final grade.

Todd Field liked the Zeiss Super Speed MKIII series of Prime lenses but didn’t like the overly spherical aberration so wanted to blend them with the overall feel of the Super Speeds. They created 2 new sets of lenses with varied Bokeh.

The concert hall spaces were difficult to light because of how high the ceiling was and how wide the frames are.

The masterclass scene was originally storyboarded as 35 setups, but they decided to shoot the whole 10 page scene in 1 take where the camera moves into all 35. A rig was built especially. Apparently their first wake was the best for the performance but there was a technical issue with the camera. 

“‘A story is finished when you can’t cut a single word out of it anymore.’ That compression is the way Todd made the film.” - Isaac Babel. - It’s interesting that Hoffmeister refers to this, because the film is almost 3 hours long of dialogue which a lot of people claimed could have easily been removed. Personally, I wouldn’t cut any of it and it’s nice to see the DoP saying that’s how they worked.

‘20/20’ AND ESPN EXPLORE THE 2018 MURDER OF UNIVERSITY OF UTAH STUDENT-ATHLETE LAUREN MCCLUSKEY  

Two-Hour Episode, Anchored by David Muir, Examines Events and Investigates Institutional Failures, With Reporting From ESPN’s T.J. Quinn and Nicole Noren 

‘Running Out of Time’ Airs on Friday, March 31 (9:01-11:00 p.m. EDT), on ABC, Next Day on Hulu  

ABC News* 

When Lauren McCluskey, a student-athlete at The University of Utah, met a bouncer at a local bar, it seemed like the start of a fairy-tale romance. However, Lauren’s friends grew concerned by his increasingly controlling behavior and urged her to stop seeing him. Soon after, Lauren discovered that her boyfriend wasn’t who he said he was ― his real name was Melvin Rowland, a 37-year-old sex offender who had recently been released from prison. Shocked and afraid, Lauren ended the relationship and contacted campus police when he began extorting and harassing her. After over a week of repeatedly asking campus police, local law enforcement and school officials for help, Lauren was kidnapped on her way back from class and later found dead in a car. In a new two-hour “20/20,” anchor David Muir and ESPN journalists T.J. Quinn and Nicole Noren explore the events leading up to Lauren’s murder and investigate the institutional failures of the systems she trusted to protect her. 

This two-hour episode of “20/20” includes interviews with Lauren’s parents, Jill and Matt McCluskey; Sean Reyes, Utah attorney general; Miguel Deras, former campus police officer; former Utah Assistant Attorney General Paul Amann, who prosecuted Rowland for two sex crimes; and Megan Thomson, Rowland’s parole agent. The program also features interviews with Courtney Tanner, the lead Salt Lake Tribune reporter on the story; Todd Reed, former KTVX/ABC4 (Salt Lake City) news director; Diamond Jackson, Lauren’s university housing adviser and friend; two of Lauren’s closest friends; and a woman who dated Rowland. “20/20” airs on Friday, March 31 (9:01-11:00 p.m. EDT), on ABC, next day on Hulu. “20/20: Running Out of Time” is part of ESPN’s four-year investigation into McCluskey’s murder. ESPN’s “LISTEN,” a 90-minute investigative documentary on the reporting and revelations of the murder of McCluskey, debuted on Tuesday, March 28, and is available to stream on ESPN+ and ESPN+ on Hulu. 

ABC News’ “20/20” is an award-winning primetime program anchored by David Muir. A proven leader as a long-form newsmagazine for over 40 years, “20/20” features unforgettable, character-driven true-crime mysteries, exclusive newsmaker interviews, hard-hitting investigative reports and in-depth coverage of high-profile stories. Janice Johnston is the executive producer. The two-hour “20/20” events air Fridays from 9:01-11:00 p.m. EDT on ABC and are available to stream on ABC News digital platforms and Hulu.

I was going through my photos and stumbled upon him! Darrell's a slasher oc I made earlier this year while I was still exploring digital art. You can see I signed these in my name yuck. He's also heavily inspired by Peter Steele if you haven't noticed.Thought you might like him idk

Apparently, I thought I was clever for coloring his hair wrong and then turning it into a personality trait?

[stealingyourbones]

Is it OK to send prompt suggestions of our own because I had this great idea of an AU where Danny was never born in the canon timeline and this lead to a bad dystopia future where Vlad let's out Pariah Dark and the world falls to ruin. Then one day Jason Todd is hiding someplace but is dying and shushing a baby in his arms when Clockwork shows up and says this boy can save them all if he gives him up and Jason agrees. Before leaving though he asks if he had a name and he says "Danny" and then Clockwork puts the baby into the care of the Fentons. Fast forward 15 years or so and he is now a hero who has saved the world (disasteroid doesn't happen though) when he takes a class trip to Gotham and someone spots this kid who suspiciously looks like a famous Red Hood. From there? Who knows, but it would be tippy and has a lot of angst and humor potential.

So so much angst can be made with this. I'm slightly confused If Clockwork sent Danny backwards in time those 15 years or just sent the fucker straight to the Fentons.

They go to Gotham and he encounters Red Hood and somehow his hood gets knocked off. He still has his domino mask on but cmon, domino masks hide just as much as sunglasses they really don't do much. Danny notices the hair and probably the "J" the second he sees Jason in his civies. Jason accidentally splashes Danny with mud with his bike and apologizes. He normally would ignore the complaints and drive off but something about this kid feels familiar and he has absolutely no idea why.

Jason drives Danny to his place to clean his shirt since the place his class is staying at doesn’t have a washer and in Gotham, laundromats are just an excuse to get your clothes stolen.

Danny confronts Jason about being Red Hood and oH boy Jason panics and threatens Danny that he’ll shoot him if word gets out.

Jason doesn’t expect Danny to start laughing.

“Can’t kill someone who’s already dead dude you should know this by now.”

I- what?

Sitting Pretty (1933) Harry Joe Brown

[sigurism]

Joaquin Phoenix attends the "Joker" premiere during the 2019 Toronto International Film Festival at Roy Thomson Hall in Toronto, Canada

[totally-a-different-person]

Haha! I totally some snarky banter between Thompson and bartender Todd over the issue. The ex bandit just being a cheeky bastard as the sheriff sips his beer. “Quite a show you put on last night sheriff. I could probably top that. Mind if I take ‘em for a spin tonight?”

I think it's even better if this was a common thing between them like as a joke or not but then this this time when Todd tries to get all competitive and make it a thing he gets all serios and is like "Fuck no you can't >:( Absolutely not this one is completely if limits so don't try anything" And Todd gets all huffy like "Ok geez >:( You don't have to be an asshole" And now there both mad this is just a mess

I think at first he would assume it was some random reason or maybe something specific with the person, and just leave it at that, but then when he manages to pull someone and he's talking about it to Thomson at the bar the next day (because he is an alcoholic that is there everyday i's a real problem) and he expects the usual claims that he could have done better and the usual shenanigans ensue, but he makes in clear he's not interested in any of that this time so now he's really confused and it probably makes sense when he thinks about it later and now he teases him about it and always makes sure to ask how his boyfriend is doing
